• They are normally reddish-brown and about 2mm long.
• Next, check the hindquarters of your dog or the head and neck of your cat since mostly that part is the flea favourite feeding and these are the areas that are targeted where you might see signs of flea activity.
• Carefully have a look at your pet’s skin for pleasant black droppings which looks like ground black pepper – use a flea comb over a sheet of white paper, to look small, black specks.
• There’s flea dirt on pet bedding, carpets or rugs.

Problems With Fleas?

In as much that pets are cute, they can bring quite trouble most especially when they get fleas. They bring these creepy creatures unknowingly inside their homes. After this pest gets inside, they begin to nestle and strain, infesting more than one area of your home and impose health risk to family members and pets.

Fleas are a common hassle in Australian Homes, especially those with pets. You may additionally discover a hassle with fleas, even if you do not have pets if previous owners of your home had cats or dogs. Fleas can also be carried on various (particularly dairy) animals like rats, rabbits, mice and livestock such as pigs.

As parasites, the greatest concern about the presence of fleas in your house or business comes from their bites. Although these are not painful, they can result in an uncomfortable itch or reactive rash. Your pets may also develop allergies to the flea saliva.

The main meal of fleas is usually blood from mammals. Adult fleas feed on blood and can consume 15 times their own weight per day. Their larvae feed on a pet or human dandruff, discarded skin, hair, and any other organic debris that they can see in your property. You will often find fleas comfortably snuggled in your pet’s fur. Their eggs can also spread throughout your whole property, infesting your bedding, furniture, and flooring. Larvae often lurk deep inside the carpet fabric or inconvenient hardwood floor crevices. It’s difficult to dismiss fleas. Mostly, we see the tiny bloodsuckers as a nuisance for pets and for us not a severe threat to anyone’s health.

Keeping You Home Flea Free

Here are our sure ways to help you keep a flea-free house:

Before you do anything else, vacuum – carpets, furnishings, cracks in the floorboards and upholstered furniture. This will not only eliminate adult fleas but also their eggs and larvae. The larvae feed on adult flea feces and other organic matter, which accumulate in things like carpets and carpeting. Eliminating this source of food is an important step in breaking the flea life cycle.

Empty your vacuum cleaner very carefully away from the house because the fleas will still be alive.

Groom your pets frequently with a flea comb and wash their beds each week (ideally at 50°c or above).

If your pet is scratching or biting its fur you should talk to your vet. They can recommend the best flea sprays or powders to use to take care of your pet.
